Hi guys, been a long time since I posted here.

I'm trying to write some bbml-style code.. Its working great for tags
that don't have closing counterparts.. but for ones that do, I have a
problem.

My text is:

[quote who="Tony1"]Quote 1[/quote]
[quote who="Tony2"]Quote 2[/quote]
[quote who="Tony3"][quote who="Tony4"]Quote 4[/quote][/quote]

My regex is:

(\[quote who="([^"]*)"\][/quote].*\[/quote\]*)

What I'd like it to do is replace each line with something.. The
problem is that it finds the entire thing... all four quotes.. so the
quoted text is:

---Begin---
Quote 1[/quote]
[quote who="Tony2"]Quote 2[/quote]
[quote who="Tony3"][quote who="Tony4"]Quote 4[/quote]
---End---

I would assume, of course, that the regex should find the first
match..  Is there a way to do this? I've seen Depressed Press of
Boston's code and its good.. but like the author has said, its huge...
its slow for a tool, but its quick for what it is.

Thoughts?
